Does anyone have any tips on how to get spots of paint off carpets? (Other than the make sure you use a dustsheet first.....did that and still have som mistakes!)

Thanks in advance....

Do you know what the carpet is made from: IE: wool, nylon,polypropelene?

Polypropelene should clean off with white spirits.

Wool and nylon should do the same BUT test in an inconspicuous area first.

If its only sitting on the tips of the fibre you can trim them back, or use a disposable razor and lightly shave the surface.

Let it dry completely and then rub the area with sandpaper.
